Slightly off topic, but, without googling or imdb-ing, which of the above list of people appears in an episode of Father Ted? (UK comedy set in Ireland)

Amazing team with the irreplaceable Brian Eno ! But Melanie is on this track 😬…

Eno, as "Father Brian Eno"
-
Correct!
-
Listened.........very distant from the best Gabriel........
-
Ah… 😔
-
A strange tune. Interesting and experimental but not melodic.
-
After a few listen… it’s a wonderful track in my opinion.
-
Same here
I like this track a lot.
-
Fantastic song. Really digging the lyrics.
-
-
Really like this. It's dark and melodic, and very "new" sounding. I like the dynamic between the verse and chorus. It's reminds me of Darkness but is much more concise (and stronger for it).
-
Melody is good, the lyrics are catchy and mysterious.
An easy listening album like So?
-
it’s an amazing track. It took a while, but this is far better than Panopticom and it shows Peter is still able to create stunning stuff. It has a little PGIV flair actually.
-
I find it more engaging than Panopticom which to my ears sounds unbelievably flat and dull but I'm still far from being thrilled.
-
I'm not that crazy about either of them to be honest, but I'm sure I will get to like them.

No, neither is top notch, I've been wondering whether my assessment is the result of too long a wait or pent-up expectations but after several listens I simply believe they are average songs.
